Zum Retinol Serum

Häufige Fragen zu Retinol

Ab wann sieht man Ergebnisse mit Retinol Serum?

Erste Verbesserungen der Hauttextur nach 4 bis 6 Wochen. Anti-Aging-Effekte wie weniger Falten und mehr Festigkeit nach 12 bis 16 Wochen.

Kann ich Retinol Serum täglich anwenden?

Start mit 2x pro Woche abends — nach 4 Wochen auf 3 bis 4x steigern. Empfindliche Haut: 1x wöchentlich beginnen. Sonnenschutz am Folgetag ist Pflicht.

Retinol vs. Bakuchiol — was ist besser?
